I take my toddler here as much as possible. The staff and all the animals are so friendly. We absolutely love this place… thank you for existing!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Tailor-made for toddlers and young children up to about age 8 — the hands-on animal feeding, pony rides, and playground cover the full visit without needing structured programming. Birthday party packages work particularly well for ages 1–6. Parents of very young toddlers should supervise closely in the goat enclosure area.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Book birthday parties in advance via the online booking link — three-hour slots fill up, especially on weekends.
You can bring your own food, cake, decorations, and piñata to the covered pavilion at no extra charge.
🎟️Wear closed-toe shoes for animal areas — sandals are not recommended around the livestock.
🚗Check the events calendar for the seasonal pumpkin patch and special Halloween nights, which run on a separate schedule.

We had my grandsons 6 year birthday party here. The place was perfect. The playground was fun for the kids, they enjoyed the pony ride and hay ride and feeding the goats.

Great experience! I had my son’s 3rd birthday party here and the kids absolutely loved it. The animals are all so cute and staff is very friendly and helpful. I recommend having a birthday party here!
